Marquette Rocks!

11 08 2008

We are back from a spectacular weekend in Marquette, and it (has) rocks! We were looking for aggressive technical challenges to prepare for Moab and came home more than satisfied. The weather was perfect, we could ride to almost everything from the campground, and it was very fun being in town with all the Ore-to-shore racers. It was so much fun 2 Wheel Technique will be organizing another trip up there soon!

Orange bikes invade the 2WT cruiser ride!

7 08 2008

The orange bikes invaded the 2 Wheel Tuesday Cruiser Ride. Eric Clone of Boardman Paddle and Pedal joined us, and we took his distinctive orange cruiser rental bikes out for the ride. Everyone on orange definitely attracted a lot of attention! We did a few laps of the twilight criterium course John Sohaki showed us last week. It was a riot. I’m voting for a cruiser class in the criterium 🙂
